After having our largest net worth increase ever last month, we followed it up this month with our 2nd largest ever net worth increase, beating the previous record by just a few dollars. Two strong months in a row like that let me know we are doing something right.
We hit a couple of minor milestones this month as my 401k crossed $20k and my Roth IRA crossed $30k. Our entire net worth 1 year ago was only a little over $50k, so it’s kind of cool to have that in just two accounts today.
The large gain in the my Roth IRA was due to a $3,000 deposit. I had wanted to buy a new fund that required a minimum deposit of $3,000, which I was able to make this month.
I am feeling a lot better about the odds of achieving the goals we set at the beginning of the year. There’s still a long way to go, but we’re looking a lot better than we were after the first couple of months of the year.
